Students review plotting points on a coordinate plane. Individually, they add and subtrace complex numbers and graph them in a complex plane. They follow along a worksheet while their teacher lectures on the new material and solve...

Using either data provided or data that has been collected, young mathematicians graph linear functions to best fit their scatterplot. They also analyze their data and make predicitons based on the data. This lesson is intended as a...

Middle schoolers explore measurements of rectangles. In this measurement comparison lesson plan, students discover the length, width, perimeter, and area of two different rectangles. Middle schoolers record their measurements on a...

Students identify function using tables of data. In this algebra lesson, students create a tale of point and plot on a coordinate plane. They analyze the graph as being a function or not.

Students explore inequalities. For this Algebra I lesson, students solve and graph linear inequalities involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division.  Students use inequalities to solve and graph real-world problems.

Students rewrite word problems using the correct symbols. In this algebra lesson, students find the trigonometric identities and use them to solve problems. They write equations for the trigonometric ratios.

Middle schoolers practice plotting functions on the Cartesian coordinate plane, see several categories of functions, including lines and parabolas, and read a graph, answering questions about the situation described by the graph

Students solve systems of 2-by-2 linear equations using tables, graphs and substitution. In small groups, classmates work together to discover strategies for solving equations. They use a calculator to graphically represent their answers.

Students plot functions on the Cartesian coordinate plane. They explore lines and parabolas. Students analyze graphs and answer questions about the information presented on the graph using an online program.

Students explore the Cartesian coordinate plane and plot points on the graph. They interpret coordinates for a point from the graph and give the ratio of rise over run for slope.

Students explore number sense by completing a statistical analysis game in class. In this data graphing lesson, students utilize visual references such as colored cubes and tiles to map out the results of an experiment outcome such as a...

Middle schoolers investigate seed germination. In this instructional activity on scientific prediction, students conduct a scientific experiment using oat seeds.

Students perform a science experiment. In this algebra lesson, students collect data from their experiment and create a graph. They analyze the graph and draw conclusion.

Students research propulsion, graph data, and interpret the results.

Students discover patterns in linear equations by playing a dice game to collect data. They graph the data and analyze the patterns of the lines created by the data. The class then compares the individual graphs to evaluate the position...

Eighth graders evaluate statistical equations. They examine data from archaeologists at Jamestown, complete statistical equations using the sets of data, and graph the results.

Students demonstrate an understanding of aircraft launch airspeed requirements. They read a selection on relative velocities from a NASA Web-based textbook, then calculate airspeed launch requirement problems.

Students make a rocket out of paper. They follow the given instructions and test to see if it will fly. They write about the experiment and are given the opportunity to change their varibles to make their rocket work.

Learners explore the Mandelbrot Set. They are introduced to the concept of a complex number and function in order to motivate the discussion of Julia and Mandelbrot sets. Students investigate fractals and how they are built.

Students address the idea that human beings live within the world' ecosystems. They discuss how humans modify ecosystems as a result of population growth, technology, and consumption. Students discuss how the human destruction of...
